Hey guys,so sorry for the late chapter! School has kept us both super busy this week so far so our update hasn't been as consistent as we would have liked! We really hope you guys enjoy this one and please let us know your honest thoughts on it! We appreciate all of you so much! Also,some words may be missing letters-that is all AllyJ's fault! I(AllyJ) tried to fix them all but I probably missed some.

Happy Reading:)

"So brave yet so stupid," Matthew hissed at Emily, "You don't need me to pull you apart,you are falling apart all on your own. Sure,right now you are all strong and united but the cracks are there already between you and Morgan."

"Cracks can be fixed you bastard," Emily replied.

"Sure they can but they will still be there. Don't tell me that if you get out of this alive-which I highly doubt-you will fully forgive Derek for hitting you."

Emily realized that she had no response because Matthew was right,she didn't know if she could forgive Derek for striking her like he did.

"That's what I thought," Matthew turned towards the camera to address the BAU, "I would say sorry that you had to see that but I'm not sorry. So you know my name,you know my story but what you don't know is where I'm holding your agents. Good luck on that but also I need you to do me a little favor. Will LaMontagne has a huge part in all of this and I think he needs to help clear somethings up. I want him with you the next time we reconnect. Morgan has a little something he needs to share with you all and I think Will should be here for it."

"We already know about-" Hotch was about to finish saying they knew about JJ and Morgan but Matthew jumped right in.

"Finish that sentence and I will seriously hurt Emily Prentiss," he growled, "I figured that JJ would spill her guts to you but two of my three friends don't know that little part of it yet and I would love for you to see their reactions. I will be sending you another link in two hours."

Matthew waved and suddenly the screen went dark.

"JJ,get Will down here as soon as possible," Hotch said as he turned towards the team, "Garcia,I want a list of places that may mean something to the unsub so we have a starting point. Places where he visited with his family repeatedly,schools,any place that may hold significance to him I want to know about."

"How much longer do you think they can hold out for?" Gideon asked quietly.

"As long as they need to. They are strong agents and won't give in or up easily," Rossi answered.

"How many secrets are left to reveal?" Elle asked.

"Why?" Hotch turned his focus to his unusually quiet agent.

"Because,he said so himself that once the secrets are revealed they are useless to him."

"Elle is right,we need to get ahead of this guy and find out what everyone is still hiding. Morgan still has a secret left,I can't imagine Emily having anything left to hide after all that," Rossi added.

"That leaves us with Reid. We know he has one huge secret left but other then that I have no clue what he could be hiding," Hotch sat back down as he tried to figure out exactly what Reid was keeping from all of them.

Gideon knew he should say something but he couldn't. Not telling the team may very well be keeping Reid alive. If they knew then the unsub would see no reason to keep Reid around and Gideon refused to be the reason for his death, "I think for now let's just focus on finding possible locations. Just from listening to Matthew speak,he values us knowing exactly how many secrets everyone has kept and I'm almost certain he will tell us when there is just one thing left to be revealed."

Hotch nodded, "Gideon is right,okay let's start trying to narrow down where they can be at."

Emily turned towards Morgan, "Why does Will need to be here?Morgan,what is your secret?"

Morgan didn't say anything but instead turned his focus to Reid, "You okay there pretty boy?"

"I'm fine,I'm more worried about you guys though. Emily,how are you feeling?" It wasn't hard to see that even talking was wearing Reid out.

"I'm fine,sore but nothing I can't handle," Emily told him,offering a smile.

"Morgan?"

"Same as Prentiss."

"What happened?I'm not stupid you know,after he dragged me out I heard you guys hollering."

Emily and Morgan shared a look,neither wanting to be the one to tell Reid what had gone down.

"Forget it,it's not that important. What is important is that we figure out where we are and what we are going to do to get out of this mess."

"Reid's right," Morgan said nodding is head at their young genius.

He looked closer at Reid and saw a pale,gaunt face,blueish black rings around deep brown eyes,and very pink lips. Morgan quickly turned away after thinking about Reid's lips, "What the hell?Focus Morgan,he's still the same nerdy genius you have always love," Morgan thought to himself, "LOVED..where the hell did that come from,"Morgan shook his head,wishing away the thoughts.

Emily debated asking Reid what she wanted to but knew she had to ask, "Reid,where did he take you?What did he do to you?"

Reid hesitated, "No-nowhere. He just tied me up in another room."

"You don't need to lie to us,kid," Morgan said gently.

"Seriously,he just left me in another room," Reid said angrily.

Morgan and Emily shared another look,they knew he was lying but figured now was not the time to push him into answering.

"JJ,is this really necessary?" Will asked in his southern drawl.

"Yes it is because we have three missing agents and you're involved. I need you here within the next ten minutes because if you aren't here when he connects us to the feed in twenty minutes their lives are on you,"JJ practically shouted.

"I'll be there in five minutes," Will said and hung up the phone.

Matthew re-entered the room and grabbed Morgan and tied him to the chair. He then dragged Reid and Emily and put them on either side of him,securing them tightly.

"You better hope that Will is there or one of you is not going to survive," Matthew sang under his breath.

"What does Will have to do with anything?" Emily asked, "He didn't do anything to you."

"No,but he did tear a possible family apart,a secret is a secret no matter how small," Matthew said as he walked over to the camera.

"Wait,why can't I just tell them?" Morgan spoke up.

"Because,Will needs to hear."

"I'll tell him myself just please," Morgan pleaded.

"Begging won't get you anywhere in life,Derek," Matthew shot him a smile and powered up the feed.

"He sent the link,"Garcia said as Will entered the conference room.

"Will,have a seat," Hotch motioned for Will to sit down.

Will sat down and looked around. No one would look at him directly and everyone seemed on edge, "Anyone care to fill me in on what's going on?"

"Long story short we have three agents kidnapped,all of them have supposedly been hiding stuff and the unsub aka Matthew wanted you to here to hear what Morgan has to share," Hotch said as Garcia clicked the link and brought the image of their missing team members into view.

"So nice of you to finally join us,"Matthew said as he stepped in front of the camera, "Will,I'm glad you decided to show up. Well,I'm really not but I'm sure these three are," Matthew said as he motioned to Morgan,Emily,and Reid.

Gideon spoke up, "I want to know how they are,physically."

"More specifically you want to know how is. I know all about you Jason Gideon. I know how has always been your favorite and you see him as a son,are you jealous of his father Jason?"

"I want to know how all of them are," Gideon said,choosing to ignore the comment about Reid's dad.

"They are fine,they'll survive. You never answered my question,Jason."

Gideon saw Reid looking wide-eyed and knew that Reid knew he knew his dad was Hotch, "Of course I'm jealous,Reid is a great kid and his father is one very lucky guy."

"He is,isn't he? Too bad he doesn't know how lucky he is," Matthew laughed and Reid looked ready to throw up.

"Jason,what is he talking about?" Hotch turned towards Gideon who realized everyone was looking at him.

"I don't know exactly," Gideon said and then sat back.

"Anyways,enough about . Morgan I believe you have a secret to share?"

Morgan didn't say anything,instead he kept his lips clamped together.

"Do not make me hurt you,"Matthew growled, "Actually,either you tell it or I'll take Emily with me," Matthew turned towards Reid, "Should we share our little secret?"

"Morgan,just say it. Don't let him take her," Reid begged,his eyes wide with fright, "He's going to make you tell either way so just out with it,please."

Morgan looked at Reid and saw how scared he was.

"Time's ticking . You have thirty seconds to start talking or get's to come with me.

"Morgan,just say it please just say it,"Reid cried looking between Matthew,Morgan,and Emily.

"Fifteen seconds."

Morgan wasn't sure what he should do but something had Reid scared, "Fine."

"Good choice,now tell everyone what you did."
